    MOST is the accronym for Maynards Operation Sequence technique. It is a system of Pre determined motion time standard. Developed in 1967by Kjell Zandin and HB Maynard, it has been renamed as the managerial Operation sequence technique after Accenture took over the HB Maynard Company. This technique is based on the Common basic movements of objects.

    How and Why is MOST preferred over the stop watch time study in most of the industries today.

    The operator rating factor is eliminated, the study is consistent, it helps to study the activity rather than the person doing the activity and it can forecast for future operation. It also is more accurate than the traditional stop watch time study...

    Todays discussion is then why do colleges do not provide a detailed subject related to this effective tool in Industrial Engineering... Is Time study using stop watch still relevant in today's world of manufacturing??
